All these questions, all of this is happening all so suddenly, it's disorienting...
You managed to find your tongue as you snap out of the cataleptic trance with a few blinks.
>"Uh, thh... thanks for saving me, thought I was going to die... I'm bleeding out a bit, they sunk their fangs in my legs. Are there any doctors nearby?"
>"O-Oh! Hey! A man lead me here, saying he wanted these Kedama things to eh... to eat me alive so he could steal my stuff! I don't where if he's still hiding behind the rocks! Be careful!"

<span class="mu-i">"Hwoo? Ah, don't worry about him, mister! He's a repeat offender, and now that he's tried it again after his first warning, I don't think Mokou's going to let him here anymore."</span>
You heard a wail then. It sounded like that man from before, in fact, just a lot farther off.
What a lowlife. So he'd tried screwing over other humans before, all for a little material gain? What a jackass, you'd like to...
<span class="mu-s">"-your banditry's encroaching on my guide business, rat! I thought I told you to cut it out the first time! Maybe those nice burns will learn you! I'll be sure to tell all the strays you're fine for eating, so you'd best think twice before you ever come back here AGAIN!"</span>
...but you get the feeling you wouldn't need to, not after that. That was also far off, but oh was it loud enough to hear from here.
<span class="mu-i">"Ah, you should rather be thanking her for saving your life, I only helped her find you by smelling you out. Don't worry, she can get you help, one way or another. Oh, by the way, I'm Imaizumi Kagerou, I'm a werewolf, nice to meet you. And no, I don't plan on eating you."</span>
Kagerou, is it? Very well, you accept a helping hand from her to get yourself back up to your legs and sat down on a rock, even with how long and sharp her fingernails looked. Easy does it.
"W-Well... thanks for helping my helper at least. Who is she, anyway?"
<span class="mu-i">"That would be me."</span>
"JESUS!"
You jumped back, startled from the sudden appearance of the pale girl to your left, one who held flame like it didn't even burn her! Holy... holy crap, how did she get there like that, so fast?! Was she also some kind of mythical creature like the... the literal, admitted werewolf girl? You mean, she looks human enough, except for her steely hair.
She raised an eyebrow, and her hands up where you could see them once her flames died down. <span class="mu-i">"No, it's Mokou. Fujiwara no Mokou to be exact. Sorry if I frightened you. You can calm down now, we don't plan on hurting you."</span>
